Travel will become difficult to impossible across Northwest Montana this week as a significant and potentially dangerous arctic outbreak sweeps across the region.
The National Weather Service in Missoula warned Monday that the winter punch will clock the Flathead Valley with heavy snowfall, gusty winds and the coldest temperatures of the season.
The surge begins Tuesday as snow develops and picks up in intensity. Kalispell residents could be shoveling about 4 inches of new accumulation by Wednesday.
